High on the priority list over the next couple of weeks is cleaning up the raspberry and blackberry runs. I mulched last year but the grass & weeds just keep taking over as I’ve never had enough time to edge...you would think I'd know better by now. The raspberries are doing well regardless, but the blackberries have taken a beating - I'm sure our hot, dry weather last summer didn't help matters.

It's been overcast, cool and rainy for the past week with only one day of sunshine. I've done plenty of sowing and transplanting but with the cool temperatures, growth in the garden is fairly slow.

Earlier this month, a couple of the brassicas were transplanted into the garden, namely the kohlrabi and rapini (both of which I spoke about in a previous post). Kale and Beira Tronchuda were also supposed to be transplanted at that time but I forgot to add them to the hardening off tray, so they didn't end up in the ground until a couple of weeks ago.

I'm Going!

I Was There!
